The smoky taste of grilled beef goes perfectly with sweet onions and spicy salsa in this easy meal. Summer squash adds an interesting twist to this traditional Mexican favorite. To grill squash, you want to first be sure that the two pieces of squash you select are about the same size for even cooking. We grilled them in larger slices to help retain their textures and to keep them from overcooking. It also keeps them from falling between the grates. You can also grill the tortillas before preparing the fajitas.
